Book • 2024

Yuval Noah Harari

In 'Unstoppable Us, Volume 2: Why the World Isn't Fair', Yuval Noah Harari delves into the evolution of human society from the Agricultural Revolution to the establishment of kingdoms and laws.

The book explains how an innocent experiment in growing wheat 10,000 years ago led to significant changes in human history, including famine, plague, and war.

It also covers the development of writing, the origin of taxes, and the rights of various social groups.

The narrative is accompanied by vibrant color illustrations by Ricard Zaplana Ruiz, making the story engaging and accessible for middle-grade readers.
